"I started out thinking I would do Postmates part-time, in between jobs, but I fell in love with Postmates. The first thing I did was upgrade my bike. Now I keep switching out new parts, feels like a video game. I'm addicted to it."

Chris Hicks, 1,401 deliveries

"Postmates has given me the opportunity to work while going to school. The flexibility makes this possible - I set my own schedule. Also, it's made me recognize how beautiful San Francisco is! I love riding through all of the different neighborhoods."

"What I love about working for Postmates is that I get to spend my day outside, riding my bike, and getting to know the city. When I first started I did not know where Pacific Heights was and now I ride over it two or three times a day!"

How It Works

Everyone's Favorite Delivery Service

A Postmate is like a friend who can stop by a restaurant or store and pick up anything you need. Customers use the Postmates app to place a delivery order from any restaurant or store in the city. They are then matched with a Postmates courier, who heads to the restaurant or store, makes the purchase, and then delivers the food or goods. All in less than an hour.

Requirements

To be a Postmate you must take pride in delivering exceptional customer service. There are a few other basic requirements - you must be over 18; own a bike, car, truck, scooter or motorcycle; and have an upbeat and positive attitude.

Compensation

Postmates receive the majority of the delivery fee, plus 100% of the tip. What does that really mean? Postmates make up to $25/hr. Earnings are deposited weekly.
